Wicket Falls

Muhurtam
Kadir phones Bharati and cooes over the phone. Does not notice Sivaperumal watching him. Embarrassed when he discovers him. Sivaperumal offers Rs. 10000 to buy dresses for the nichyathartham. Kadir says why so much. Sivaperumal insults him by saying, "your people may say bad things about us otherwise."

Meanwhile, Sivaperumal's mother is giving hell to Bharati's mother and her own daughter-in-law at a saree shop. Kadir's family has not yet come to pick sarees. When they arrive too, she gently insults Kadir's mother.

Kadir's politician brother-in-law has been given the brush-off by some MLA he helped elect. He and his cronies plot strategy to get back at him.

Selvi
Well, Aishwarya did not die after all. She is rescued, but in the general atmosphere of melodrama, every one on all sides says Selvi should get married to GJ because the children need a mother. Bull. Hire a damn ayah, why get married. Anyway, Tamil Serial logic and common sense take two separate routes entirely, and so Selvi agrees, reluctantly, to get married.

Scene where her stepmother is delighted because of the forthcoming prosperity this alliance will bring. Says to her daughters, go and grab all the good sarees they must have bought. Selvi warns that she is sacrificing herself, but that one day they will regret their pressuring her. Seems like famous last words. Meanwhile, here fiance (the driver guy) is shown rushing in his car, not clear where. At the end of the episode, her father is shown rushing towards a marriage pandal with a gift.

Manaivi
Wholly devoted to Hamsaveni, who has survived without major damage to herself or child. Her mother, and Ramani's parents are the in the hospital, from where they try calling Ramani to persuade him to visit her. He refuses, but Krishnaveni comes to know of Hamsaveni's suicide attempt, and tries to get thim to go. He still does not. Final section, Velu slips into Hamsaveni's room. She says she has been blind in her affection for Ramani, at the expense of the affection of people like Velu who are devoted to her. Hereafter she will correct this, she says. Velu says he will kill Krishnaveni. To which Hamsaveni protests, but only mildly.
